Use Getting To Know You to break the ice with a new group, or enhance bonding in an old one.

Team building is an essential part of creating an atmosphere that your team members are truly invested in. Whether you are planning a group bonding event for a new group or trying to jumpstart an old one, Getting To Know You creates opportunities for instant bonding that is directly relevant to your day-to-day operations. Give your team members a chance to break the ice and learn more about each other in a comfortable, relaxed atmosphere with our smartphone scavenger hunt.

How it works

Everyone loves a good contest, and Getting To Know You social scavenger hunt adds a unique twist on a classic team building activity. Your team can use our custom smartphone app to connect other team members to questions on our scavenger hunt list created for your event. Participants turn in answers in the form of pictures, funny videos, or even quick text responses. For each question answered, participants earn points along the way.

Every challenge is quick and fun to complete, and gives your team members the chance to learn a lot about their new friends in a short period of time. Challenges include themes like hobbies, school, travel, works, skills, and personal interests. These themes are guaranteed to start deeper conversations and create a solid foundation for friendships and working relationships.

Give your team members anywhere from one to three hours of total entertainment with the added benefit of deeper bonding.

Utilizing smartphone technology for easier bonding

With our convenient smartphone app, participants can focus more on the individuals in front of them than filling out a form. Our app makes it easy to use the social scavenger hunt for groups of any size with little preparation. From beginning to end, every step is automatic and in real-time. This makes for a fun, entertaining, exciting activity that builds strong bonds.

The activity unfolds in real-time on any Internet-enabled device so everyone can watch the action live. Encourage healthy competition and entertainment with a contest that is low-maintenance, easy, and fun to complete. Everything is automated and effortless on your part, as you get everything you need for success.

Why Choose Us?

We've done this before

"
What I liked most about the event was that it was really interesting to see how people were challenged to step up to the plate and take on more active roles than they may be used to in a professional setting. On the flipside, the same goes for how our upper managers had to take a more backseat role (and some were happy to relax into this) and let others take control. It forced us to step out of our comfort zone and that was good because it helped us grow as a team!"
